What are the benefits of long-term evening running?

Running is a sport we often do, and it is also a way for us to lose weight and maintain our figure. In addition to these functions, running has many benefits that we don’t pay attention to. However, what we need to pay attention to is that the time and method of our running must be correct. In fact, whether it is in the morning or at night, it will be good for the body. So, what are the benefits of running at night for a long time? Let’s take a look at it together.

1. Eyes: People who insist on long-distance running spend about an hour every day looking straight into the distance, which is a good relaxation for the eyes. If you have school-age children at home, if you can let them insist on running every day, the chance of myopia will definitely be reduced.

2. Neck, shoulders, and spine: People who often sit in front of computers will more or less have some problems with the cervical spine and shoulders. The correct running posture requires the back to be straight and relaxed. Long-term persistence will greatly improve the discomfort of the cervical spine and shoulders.

3. Heart: Persisting in running will give you a strong heart and cardiovascular system. While increasing the maximum oxygen uptake, the amount of oxygen delivered to various organs of the body is greatly increased, and the working quality of various organs is naturally greatly improved. In addition, middle- and long-distance running will accelerate blood circulation, allowing the coronary arteries to have enough blood to supply the myocardium, thereby preventing various heart diseases. Through the exercise of the lower limbs, venous blood is encouraged to flow back to the heart and intravenous thrombosis is prevented.

4. Blood: With a strong cardiovascular system, runners have better blood quality than ordinary people. The adaptive changes in the body to long-term middle and long-distance running can improve metabolism and reduce blood lipid and cholesterol levels.

5. Lungs and respiratory system: Long-term middle- and long-distance running exercises can strengthen lung function and increase vital capacity. Regular long-distance running can develop the lung respiratory muscles, increase the amount of ventilation each time, and enhance lung function.

6. Liver: Running can improve and eliminate fatty liver.

7. Abdomen: Long-term running can effectively remove abdominal fat and give you a toned and flat belly.

8. Waist and hips: The changes in body shape caused by running are first reflected in these two parts. Many people have had this experience. After running for a period of time, the weight has not decreased significantly, but the body shape has improved significantly, especially the waistline has become more beautiful.

9. Knees: Running can improve blood circulation throughout the body, especially the knees. Although some people may feel pain in their knees when they first start running, with gradual accumulation and strength training, the knees will become stronger and stronger.

10. Leg muscles: The muscle tissue of people who run regularly will also change. After a period of exercise, you will find that the leg muscles will become very strong and toned.

11. Stomach: Middle and long-distance running makes people feel full of energy and optimism, helps to increase appetite, strengthen digestive function, promote nutrient absorption, and greatly improve gastrointestinal function.

12. Muscles throughout the body: Long-term middle- and long-distance running can strengthen the lung respiratory muscles, heart muscles, neck muscles, chest muscles, arm muscles, as well as muscles in the waist, buttocks, thighs, calves, feet, etc., making it difficult for metabolites such as lactic acid or carbon dioxide to accumulate in various muscles. Running can be said to be the foundation of all sports and will have a positive impact on your participation in other sports.

13. Bones: Long-term middle- and long-distance running can improve the strength of each joint and the flexibility of ligaments; it can also increase the strength and density of bones, thus preventing people from suffering from degenerative osteoporosis in old age.

Through the above introduction, we can see that long-term running at night has many benefits. This is also a method of exercise that we need to stick to for a long time. In addition, we should not get tired when running. The amount of running should be suitable for ourselves, especially we should control our rhythm and frequency when running.
